Minor League Scorebook
News
- While Casey Kotchman isn't a rookie anymore, the Times' hypothesized prospect of the Angels heading up to Salt Lake to scout Kendry Morales gives you pause, even if they dismiss it in the second part of the sentence. But we do learn that Kotchman has a sore ribcage, and he's spending more time with Mickey Hatcher; that by itself could count as a problem. Reminds me of last year and his awful start at Salt Lake, where he was trying to hit everything out of the park. Again.
- Maicer Izturis got a strained left hamstring during a steal attempt in today's game; the Times speculates that the Angels will call up Erick Aybar to replace him.

Gonzalez: (W, 1-0) (in relief), 3.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 1 K, 0 BB, 3.38 ERA
Both teams had players with x-7 nights in this 13-inning extravaganza, Sean Rodriguez (2-7) for the Quakes and leadoff man Corey Wimberley (3-7) for the Nuts. Michael Collins got aboard on a hit-by-pitch; a sac fly and an RBI single from Baltazar Lopez won the game. Overshadowed by the duration of the game was a good game by Nick Green, who allowed only two earned runs over seven innings, but getting a scant three strikeouts.

Mark Trumbo is slumping badly, hitting .167; it's bad when the Mendoza line would represent a step up. We are here, though, to talk about Warner Madrigal and his three RBIs, as well as Nick Adenhart's latest masterpiece, a six-inning, five-strikeout, five hit (oops) game.

It's games like this that give D.J. Houlton hope of returning to the major leagues; with Seo marginal to stay in the rotation, you have to think he's at least got a shot at coming back up. Gotta add Ethier to the watch list, too.

Sergio Pedroza's grand slam won this game, but a ton of scoring on both sides. Not much to like about the pitching anywhere.

It's looking like Adenhart should move up the ladder a bit, to the high-A Quakes at least.
Wasn't Trumbo a pitcher in H.S. that the Angels drafted as a position player? Maybe he should try taking the mound again.

Yes, Trumbo was a pitcher in high school. In fact, he had planned to go to USC to pitch before the Angels drafted him.
